Rating: 4/5Perfectly serviceable for gaming and office use

Pros: The 940BX works very well for gaming (response time and ghosting are non-issues), and with some calibration, can be pretty good for graphics works and movies as well. At this price point, it's a pretty solid performer, although the technology is now starting to show its age. The build quality is good; it's highly adjustable, and the OSD is easy to navigate.

Cons: I can't quite get the contrast right, and the colors are a little warm compared to my TV. The cable routing could be better, and the buttons for the OSD are a little annoying to use. The vertical viewing angle is also fairly limited.

Other Thoughts: With some calibration, you can get good color reproduction, but it's kind of set back by the viewing angle. If you're not an elitist about color accuracy and consistency, you'll be more than satisfied with this monitor.

Rating: 5/5Lovely, Just Lovely

Pros: Fantastic with games, movies and everything else you would use a PC for. The 5ms response time is valid and true. Also, the other great features about this monitor is the height adjustment, DVI-D and rotates as well. The best thing of all, it supports Max res 1280x1024 @75Htz. NO DEAD PIXELS EITHER.

Cons: It doesn't make you a Rockstar

Other Thoughts: Thanks Samsung for a great product and NewEgg for the best price in town.

Rating: 5/5Nearly Perfect

Pros: Crystal clear picture and text, fast on games, no dead pixels. It's everything I want from a monitor at a great price too. Color is really great.

Cons: Software included for adjustments and calibration are of no use. I have a GT8800 and the software isn't compatible. Manual tweaking got it to a decent setting though.

Other Thoughts: I really can't see anything at all wrong with this monitor. The CONS from others are a little over the top. I sit in front of my monitor when using it (why wouldn't you?), so don't have this color difference others talk about. Nor do I notice any bleeding etc. Great monitor.

Rating: 5/5Very nice monitor!

Pros: Excellent screen, no bad pixels, bright, great color and contrast, adjustable stand is perfect for my desk, controls easy to use and well thought out, small footprint. Styling is sharp and matches my system.

Cons: Others have mentioned the limited viewing angles. This is true compared to my HDTV LCD, but not a factor for me as I sit in front of it.

Other Thoughts: I'm using it on a Linux system with no problems. Linux correctly recognized it on bootup. The included utilities only work on Windows, though. Auto color control in the monitor works just fine.
